Postal officials note mail volume is far above prior records with hundreds of railway cars diverted to war service and airlines operating about half their former planes. Over two hundred thousand extra temporary workers are hired for the season, largely women and high school students who can work shorter hours. To deliver Christmas mail on time, plans require adjustments and efficiency despite slower output from these workers.

Postal officials urge earlier shopping and mailing to use available transport and staff. Delays loom if mailers wait until the last three weeks before Christmas, as stores face shortages and crowds. Postmaster General Walker says this is an advance notification, not a directive.
